Cotton vs. Hemp Diapers: Which Cloth is Best?

If you've been shopping for cloth diapers, you'll probably notice many online companies offering diapers made of hemp fabric. Hemp products are more environmentally friendly than cotton, they are more biodegradable, and although hemp is a relative of marijuana, hemp is virtually free of THC, the psychoactive substance in marijuana.

Here are some reasons hemp diapers outperform their cotton competition:
Hemp fabric is three times stronger than cotton fabric
Hemp fabric is more absorbent than cotton fabric
Hemp has natural antifungal and antibacterial properties, and is mildew resistant.
Hemp can be grown pesticide-free, while cotton is one of the most environmentally destructive crops, accounting for 25% of world pesticide use.

And it is for these reasons that marijuana will never be lagalized. IMO, it has nothing to do with the drug itself but the amazingness of hemp! It could replace cotton and tree pulp for so many things and cost some big companies some big bucks..

Sorry, so off topic. I just think hemp is amazing and definitely prefer it when it comes to diapering.
